Psychiatry Cognitive Science- Psychiatry

Psychiatry is the medical specialty devoted to
the diagnosis, prevention and treatment of mental disorders. These include various maladaptation related to mood,
behavior, cognition, and perceptions. Psychiatry got its name as a medical
specialty in the early 1800s. For the first century of its existence, the
psychiatry with severely disordered individuals confined to hospitals. These
patients were generally psychotic, severely depressed or suffered with
dementia, brain tumors, seizures, hypothyroidism and many more we would now recognize as medical. The
treatment was rudimentary, often harsh and generally ineffective at ancient
times. By the turn of the 20th century, the neurologist Sigmund Freud published
theories on the unconscious roots of some of these less severe disorders, which
he termed psycho-neuroses. Freud developed psychoanalysis to treat these neurotic patients. However psychiatry soon
became in providing this treatment. Thus, Psychoanalysis first became the
treatment for psychiatric outpatients. It also created a split in the field,
between biological psychiatry and psychotherapy, which continues to this day.
